Cool Street-level Art: Crosswalk Dread by Charles

Skeleton 007

Most “street art” is not actually in the street, but these are. Somewhere between Caspar the Friendly Ghost and The Scream, these poor guys have apparently been run down by rush hour traffic and left to molder in the crosswalks, the White Guy at the SW corner of the Connecticut/S/Florida conflagration and the Yellow Guy in the west crosswalk at Connecticut and R. I assume it’s a commentary on traffic’s menace to pedestrians, but maybe they’re just for fun.

Anyone else see these in other spots around town?

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
